PantsForSquares Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Okay, confession time. So I'm normally a fairly calm person, but I've met someone recently (about a month and change ago, really) who I really like. I've been sort of biding my time to ask her out, just to make sure that I'm not being deceived by first impressions. Here's where things get good. The more time I spend around her, the more I realize how much we have in common, and how much I really enjoy being around her. I'm not normally the sort of person to get sentimental (I've had bad experiences in the past where that's backfired horribly), so finding someone like her is amazing. I'm supposed to meet up with her on Sunday to get some studying done, and I'm probably going to ask her out to lunch/dinner then. But holy carp, am I nervous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see you found someone similar to you. Your nervous. That's to be expected.But I do find that eating holy carp can ease your nerves a little bit, nice choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it will turn out great. As for nervousness, I always ask myself what I'm so afraid of. What's the worst she can say? If she says no, then it's her loss. ;) Either that or I take my mind off things with a comfort book (kind of like comfort food, but better). Best of luck to you!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantsForSquares Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 So while I'm still set on asking her out, I've decided to postpone it by about a week. It's not that things are weird, but times might coincide better if I ask her out next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it looks like unnecessary delay. Ask her out today for a date that will take place on a week or so if you're going to have more time then.

Well, it's not that I'm afraid of asking her, it's just that the next few days, as well as the first part of the upcoming week are going to be pretty stressful for her, so I don't want to put her under any more pressure, nor do I want to distract her from exams and other important matters. I'll probably ask her out on Friday for a date after Wednesday next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll come around to ask next friday.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fills the heart and mind with warmth, bringing nigh-unmatched depths of euphoria to the lovestruck. If this crush is hot chocolate, it burnt the tongue of my soul. That last metaphor didn’t make sense. How annoying. JUST LIKE THIS SPARKING CRUSH. Man, you got it rough. Wanna tell more? Maybe venting will help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not just something I'm saying because of the dopamine-brew; I've been close friends with her for a while. The problem is the distraction, and how I feel like it was so much easier and simpler when I only wanted to be her friend. Like today we were talking politics in the library after school, them when we turned to our laptops and started working, I couldn't focus on mock trial because I was distracted. I kept on thinking about how cute her style was -- she was wearing the collar of her shirt over this nice white sweater, and I thought that was adorable. Not staring or anything... just something I noticed, and kept thinking about as I tried to type. I kind of feel bubbly inside when I hear her laugh or she smiles at something I do or say. And I don't like it. On an intellectual level, I just want to be her friend and focus on other things, so this is very vexing to me. Emotions are weird, man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PantsForSquares Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) So I finally decided to ask her out. She said she wasn't sure what her schedule was like next week, and that she'd get back to me on it. And now I just feel like I monumentally screwed up. Edit: Honestly, I have faith in her actually getting back to me, but I'm still really, really nervous because of it. Advice?

That was unexpected, but I guess it was smart on her part, to give some time to the thought (Not implying anything on your part).

You said she was busy, she says she's busy, chances are she's busy. Better she suggests a time that works rather than you guys like rush around because she has to be somewhere in half an hour. Plus, she's going out of her way to find time for you. She could have said "I'm busy nope nope" but she said "I'm busy let's find time". So, relax as much as you can. It'll be alright.

PantsForSquares Posted October 23, 2016 Report Share Posted October 23, 2016 So it turns out I was freaking out over nothing. While I haven't brought up the subject of when we're having the first date, I did spend about forty minutes texting back and forth - which is something that would have just ended awkwardly if she had decided to silently decline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantsForSquares Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 So, this is awkward. I'm 90% sure she forgot about getting back to me. I don't particularly blame her, given that she's got a bunch of stuff going on today, but I'll ask her about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
